Shops

UPDATE: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic all of our shops are currently closed and we cannot accept donations at this time. We will let you know when the shops reopen. Please keep any donations at home until then. Thank you for your support.

We have eleven shops across North and East Yorkshire specialising in good quality second-hand clothing and furniture. Our shops sell a wide range of items, ranging from designer clothing, to real gold and silver jewellery, books, homeware and furniture.

Our charity shops are our biggest individual source of income after the part funding we get from the NHS. Last year our shops collectively raised around £1.1 million for patient care at Saint Catherine’s.

Currently we are serving around 200,000 customers a year across our 11 shops, but we would love to make that number even bigger so that we can continue to provide outstanding care to patients and their loved ones in our area who are living with a terminal illness.

We sell approximately 300,000 items a year – which may well have gone to landfill if people hadn’t donated it to our shops. So when you shop with Saint Catherine’s you are not only supporting patient care, you are also helping to make a greener world for us all to live in.

Wherever possible we would also encourage supporters to Gift Aid their donation. As long as you are a taxpayer it is of no extra cost to you, but the government will donate an extra 25p for every pound which can make a huge difference to the money we raise.

In the past year we raised an incredible £55,000 through Gift Aid, which shows the difference it can make.  If you are unsure about Gift Aid please feel free to ask about it when you donate or shop.
